FAQs

The Champions Summit is a gathering of the Church to turn our hearts to God while gaining knowledge on how to better serve the brokenhearted.  We believe the Church should be the place of first response for spiritual care and can be the hands and feet of Jesus to the community. However, the Church has not always been adequately equipped nor informed on how to Biblically address caring for the brokenhearted.

The Summit is designed for a wide audience.  Any believer who has a heart and a calling to come alongside the brokenhearted can attend. This includes pastors and ministry leaders, church staff and volunteers, Christian life coaches, lay counselors, nonprofit leaders, teachers and school administrators. Click here to register.

There are no prerequisites to attend.  Bring your desire to deepen your knowledge and a passion to make a difference for those who are hurting. 

There will be Workshops, General Conference Sessions and Breakouts across our Champions for the Brokenhearted topics focusing on mental health, the Church and pressing social issues.

Attendees will have an option to participate in person at the Summit Venue (Create Church in Richardson, TX) or register for online viewing following the conference.

When registering here you will be able to select the workshops that you are interested in attending on Friday April 25th beginning at 1:00pm. A schedule will be provided so you can determine which General Conference Sessions you would like to attend if you are unable to stay the entire day on Saturday.

When you register to attend in-person, you will receive snack breaks and a boxed lunch on Saturday.
